American Express has a brand-new Amex Offer that can save you some cash on your next IHG stay.

While it doesn’t apply to every IHG property, quite a few are included, so long as you take advantage of the offer before it expires on May 26, 2026.

Here’s how to maximize this offer for your next IHG stay.

New IHG Amex Offer — The Details

The latest Amex Offer allows you to earn a one-time $50 statement credit after using your enrolled card to spend a minimum of $250 in 1 or more qualifying purchases at select IHG Hotels & Resorts in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Caribbean, U.K., Japan, and Germany, between February 25 and May 26, 2026.

This Amex Offer is not valid for the purchase of gift cards or IHG One Rewards points, nor for reservations paid for in part with IHG One Rewards points.

Stack This Amex Offer With Rakuten

As of the time of writing, Rakuten is currently offering 10% cash-back, up from the previous 3% cash-back, when you click through Rakuten first before completing your IHG booking.

Assuming you’re planning to spend at least $250 to receive your Amex Offer, you’ll get another $25 in cash-back, bringing your total to $75 in cash-back — or a 30% return on your spending.

Better yet, you have the option to earn Amex Membership Rewards points or Bilt Rewards points, in lieu of cash-back on Rakuten, meaning you could earn 10 points per $1 spent with either program on your next IHG booking.

Final Thoughts

If you’re planning a visit to any of the 7 eligible countries and territories and are open to staying at an IHG property, this is a great opportunity to save yourself a cool $50 on your stay.

For those planning to take advantage of the offer, make sure you do so before it expires on May 26, 2026.
